#### lnfwdreport: Report on your earned fees for Forwarding Payments
If you connected your node well within the Lightning Network you can become a "Routing Node" other users might select your Node as part of a Lightnig Payment and will pay you the fee you set on those channels. This menu point gives you a detailed report over the amount of days you set.

Beware - earning fees as a routing node does not come automatic. It's a bit of hard work of building the right channels to be attractive for other people to route thru. Check the internet for tutorials or use tools like "lndmanage" (see under RaspiBlitz SERVICES) to help you analyse and optimize your channel management.

Sometimes there is a new LND release that has some breaking changes that once you updated the LND database cannot be reversed (like the update from 0.9.2 to 0.10.0). Then RaspiBlitz offers you an optional update ... this is where you then can update LND.

#### PATCH: Patch RaspiBlitz code
With Patching you have now an easy way to sync your RaspiBlitz code/scripts with the official RaspiBlitz GitHub Repo or even your own forked GitHUb Repo. This is an option for people that report bugs and we like to offer them a quick script update (patch) between RaspiBlitz releases or for people who want to develolp on the RaspiBlitz and sync code between their IDE, forked GitHub and their RaspiBlitz.
